Description: Object Design provides a discussion of eXcelon, a new data

server for building Web applications with XML. eXcelon's unique XML data

management facilities provide scalability, seamless integration with legacy

data, and transparent application data caching. eXcelon is fully

XML-compliant, integrates well with Java, and works with all data sources,

application servers and client software.<p>



After the presentation, Eric will provide an informal breakout session to

continue the discussion and answer questions about other Object Design

products and initiatives.
